TRACE IT. TRUST IT.
  1. Pre-shift·step 01
    Allergen changeover

    Last run was peanut, next run is plain. Sanitation protocol + ATP swab signed before the line will start.

    FALCPA / 21 CFR 117
  2. 06:00·step 02
    Recipe lock

    Today's WO carries the approved recipe and label artwork. Operator can't substitute an ingredient without an e-sig.

  3. 07:00·step 03
    Mix + proof

    Mixer time, water temp, hydration % captured automatically. Out-of-band → deviation opens, line pauses.

  4. 10:00·step 04
    Bake

    Oven probes stream temperature. Under-bake or over-bake flagged in real time and the affected pans are routed to rework or scrap.

  5. 12:00·step 05
    Pack + label

    Case label prints using the SAME ingredient list approved on the recipe — no manual override. Allergen statement matches the formula.

    FALCPA
  6. 14:00·step 06
    Tight-scope recall test

    Operator scans any case → V5 returns every input lot, the operator, the oven, and every other case from the same mix in seconds.

Speaking your language

The terms your auditor uses

V5's UI uses these names for bakery & confectionery workspaces — no cross-industry jargon to translate.
FALCPA
Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act — the 9 major allergens that must be declared.
Cross-contact
Unintentional allergen transfer between products — the #1 bakery recall cause.
ATP swab
Adenosine Triphosphate swab — quick test for residual organic matter after sanitation.
Tight recall scope
Recalling one case worth of product instead of a week's production. Lot discipline = money.
GFSI
Global Food Safety Initiative — umbrella for SQF, BRCGS, FSSC 22000 schemes.
Schedule of conditions
Bake time / temp combinations approved as safe for the recipe.
What keeps you up at night

Sound familiar? We built this for you.

!

Allergen changeover signoff is a sticker on a clipboard; the auditor can't trust it.

!

Marketing updates the label; production keeps running the old recipe.

!

Sanitation verification (ATP, visual) lives in a separate logbook from the production record.

!

Recall reach is over-broad because lot ties to specific cases aren't clean.

Self-Building Compliance Records

The record assembles itself as the work happens.

No paperwork project at end of shift. No reconstruction at audit time. The evidence IS the workflow.

Enforced allergen changeover

The line is locked until the sanitation gate is signed and the changeover checklist is complete.

Label-to-batch reconciliation

The released formula and the printed label come from one source; mismatches are blocked.

Sanitation in the batch record

Pre-op inspection, ATP swab results, and visual sign-off ride with the BPR.

Tight recall scope

Cases tie to specific lots and specific shifts — not a whole production day.
